Videoblogging for Sun: By the Numbers

150 hours: video in the can (mostly shot by me personally) – and more constantly on the way

50 hours: video edited, compressed, and published onlineÂ (not quite all by me)

~70 video productions: ranging from 2-minute community introductions to a 2:15 hour deep dive on MPxIO

140 files: of video, including multiple formats (FLV Flash for embedding in a web page, M4V to download for iPod viewing)

16,103 total views: of these videos (as hosted on Mediacast – some are also available in other places such as YouTube) as of Sept 10, 2008

~20,000 page views: to video posts on Storage Stop since the first video was posted (Oct 24, 2007). If these posts were a blog of their own, it would be #165 in Sun blog rankings for that period. (Storage Stop overall comes in at #87 for this period.)

1 email: all it takes to find out how you can put these videos to work for you: e.g., embed them in your blog, distribute on DVD… We want to open source our knowledge. Let’s talk about it.
